Wave goodbye to sleepless nights and counting sheep.

We’ve all heard that we’re meant to get at least eight hours of sleep a night - but it can be tough to do at the best of times. With the stresses and strains of modern day-to-day life, even managing to fall asleep easily can be difficult. But science now think that pink noise, a particular kind of background noise, could actually work as a treatment for insomnia. According to a study recently published in the Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, pink noise is a less intrusive and more relaxing version of white noise. It can lead to a better, deeper sleep - and if used continuously, could even improve your memory. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SHf6wmX5MU The research involved people listening to pink noise as they slept And when they were tested the next day, participants reported feeling a lot more rested. They also performed three times better in memory and cognition tests compared to a standard night sleep. But, in a bit of good news, you won’t have to participate in a scientific study if you fancy trying pink noise to help you drift off to sleep. There’s hours upon hours of pink noise recordings on YouTube and a number of other apps to help you try and nod off.
